Hearing this, Shen Jingnian's heart suddenly felt empty.
It's very empty.
It was also very desolate, like the stock market crashing.
It was a very unfamiliar and strange feeling.
"Let me help you move your things to the yard first," Shen Jingnian said, suppressing his discomfort.
He bought ten bags, plus a full set of lipsticks, and packed them all into a large cardboard box, which was completely full.
"Thank you for your help," Jiang Ning said.
"It's nothing." Shen Jingnian picked up the box and walked into the yard, casually asking, "Ningning, when did you move here?"
Just two days ago.
What?
I've been here for two days already!
Shen Jingnian nodded slightly, his cold face revealing no emotion.
Jiang Ning continued, "Shen Jingnian, come in and have a cup of tea."
"It's too late now, I have to go back. I'll visit Grandpa Jiang another day when I have time." It was already late at night, and Shen Jingnian wasn't the kind of person who lacked tact.
Jiang Ning thought for a moment, "Then I'll treat you to dinner tomorrow night."
“Okay,” Shen Jingnian said.
Jiang Ning helped Shen Jingnian into the car, saying, "We'll contact each other on WeChat tomorrow. Drive carefully tonight."
"I will."
--
Shen Jingnian had just arrived home when he received a call from Yun Haotian.
"Hello."
It was still a very cool and aloof voice.
Yun Haotian's curious voice came from the other end of the phone, "Uncle, where did you go just now? I sent so many WeChat messages and you didn't reply."
"Nowhere, just busy with work," Shen Jingnian said succinctly.
It was so calm, as if they had really been busy with work just moments before.
Yun Haotian had no doubts about Shen Jingnian's answer, after all, besides being a miser, Shen Jingnian was also a workaholic.
"Uncle, you should be done with your work now, right? I know a super delicious street food stall, shall we go eat there together?"
In the sweltering summer heat, eating barbecue and drinking beer at a roadside stall is simply amazing.
Yun Haotian is a rich second-generation who knows how to enjoy life.
“I never eat those junk foods,” Shen Jingnian refused outright.
"But the barbecue at the roadside stalls is really delicious! Uncle, just go and try it once! I guarantee you'll love it after just one bite. Why live such a disciplined life?"
"Stop wasting your breath. Do I look like the kind of person with poor self-control who would easily change my principles?" Shen Jingnian retorted.
Only people with low self-control would arbitrarily change their principles because of others.
Shen Jingnian would not.
He has never eaten at a roadside stall since he was a child.
Yun Haotian: "......."
It seems I really don't know how!

Eight o'clock in the morning.
He Suosuo followed Lin Wanyi to visit the Lin family.
He Suosuo was surprised to learn that Lin Wanyi lived in Wancheng Villa.
"Wanyi, you're so low-key! I've known you for so long, and I never knew you lived in Wancheng Villa!"
I thought Lin Wanyi lived in a large apartment like the He family, but I didn't expect the Lin family to live in Wancheng Villa.
He Suosuo never expected that one day she would be able to enter Wancheng Villa.
Wancheng Villa is a high-end residential area with strict access control. Even food delivery and courier services are not allowed to enter freely, so ordinary people are naturally not allowed to enter either!
Lin Wanyi smiled smugly. "It's nothing. Actually, Wancheng Villas is divided into high-end and ordinary areas. My family lives in the ordinary area, where a villa only costs 20 million. The most expensive areas are buildings 8, 9, and 10, where the average price is over 50 million per unit!"
He Suosuo's face was full of shock. It was the first time she had ever heard that villas could be divided into different levels of luxury.
"The people living in Building 8 must all be either rich or powerful, right?"
“Yes.” Lin Wanyi nodded.
He Suosuo linked arms with Lin Wanyi, her eyes filled with envy. "Wanyi, you're so lucky! You were born a rich second-generation and you get to live in such a nice environment every day."
Lin Wanyi has the opportunity to meet different people from high society every day.
Although the He family's life has improved dramatically compared to before, human nature is greedy. Compared to a comfortable life, she wanted to live the life of a superior person.
She should definitely visit the Lin family more often in the future.
Who knows, I might run into some rich people in the villa area someday.
He Suosuo narrowed her eyes.
After all, even someone like Jiang Ning could step on her head to marry into a wealthy family.
She definitely can!
Aside from her face, in what way does she fall short of Jiang Ning?
She will definitely surpass Jiang Ning, that little country girl, marry into a wealthy family, and change her social class!
The two talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the main gate of Wancheng Villa.
There was a person standing at the door.
She seemed to have forgotten her access card and was stopped at the door by the security guard. She was looking down and searching for something in her bag.
She was wearing a baseball cap, and from He Suosuo's angle, only her snow-white, jade-like profile could be seen.
Even though it was just a side profile, He Suosuo recognized her very quickly.
Jiang Ning!
Is that Jiang Ning?
He Suosuo never expected to see Jiang Ning here.
What is Jiang Ning doing here?
Hooking up with rich people?
Tsk tsk tsk!
This country girl is shameless.
She's a divorced, secondhand woman, yet she still wants to marry into a wealthy family again!
wishful thinking.
He Suosuo looked at Lin Wanyi and deliberately raised her voice, "Wanyi, look at that poor bastard, he's so shameless! He clearly doesn't have a key card, yet he tries to impersonate a resident to sneak into your villa area and seduce rich people!"
Lin Wanyi snorted coldly, her eyes full of disdain, and took out her access card from her bag. "I'm already used to this kind of person."
Seeing Lin Wanyi take out her access card, He Suosuo's eyes were full of smugness.
She has a friend who lives in Wancheng Villa!
Does Jiang Ning have it?
She can enter Wancheng Villa openly and legitimately.
Jiang Ning was left outside the door.
This is the difference between people.
Lin Wanyi took out her access card and handed it to the security guard, looking arrogant. "Xiao Zhang, why are you wasting your breath talking to this kind of person? Just kick her out. Do you really believe she forgot her access card?"
In Lin Wanyi's opinion, letting a gold digger like Jiang Ning into their villa area would only lower the overall level of the villa area!
The security guard looked troubled. "Ms. Lin, you are a resident here, and this young lady is likely one too. She just can't find her access card temporarily. I'm sorry, I don't have the authority to kick her out."
Is Jiang Ning also a homeowner here?
This is absolutely unbelievable!
Hearing the security guard's words, He Suosuo burst out laughing, her eyes full of sarcasm. "I think the greatest achievement you'll ever have in your life is being a security guard! Look at her shabby appearance, does she look like someone who can afford a house in Wancheng Villa? Someone like her deserves to live in a low-rent apartment for the rest of her life! If I were her, I'd just jump into the river and drown myself, why bother making a fool of myself here!"
"Found it."
At that very moment--
Jiang Ning took out a black card from her bag, held it between her pale fingers, and handed it to the security guard.
